Game Day at Falcon Stadium
At the base of the Rampart Range of the Rocky Mountains, game day at Falcon Stadium is truly a remarkable experience. Air Force Football 2012 -- page 4
Game Day at Falcon Stadium
Pre-game fly-bys, the march-on, the Drum and Bugle Corps and the spirited cadet section, make Falcon Stadium is the place to be on Saturday. Air Force Football 2012 -- page 5
Traditions Like No Other
One of the only performing mascots in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision, the Falcon swoops in on the lure at halftime during a game last season (top left). After every Falcon score, the cadets storm the field and do pushups for every Air Force point on the board (top right). In Air Force’s 65-21 win over Tennessee State last season, the cadets did 315 pushups. Air Force Football 2012 -- page 6
Traditions LIke No Other
After every game the Falcons stand hand-in-hand in front of the cadet wing as the Drum and Bugle Corps plays the alma mater (middle right). Prior to every service academy game, the “prisoners of war� are exchanged at midfield.

Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy No other college or professional athletic team has visited the White House as often as the Air Force football team. The Falcons have made 18 trips to Washington, DC since 1982.
TROPHY TITLES Air Force Navy Army The seniors from the winning team in the battle for the Trophy make a trip to the White House to receive the Trophy from the President of the United States. Since 1982, the Falcons have met President Ronald Reagan five times, President George H.W. Bush three times, President Bill Clinton six times, President George W. Bush twice and President Barack Obama twice.

Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy
42-14 vs. Army and Navy since 1984 No other games on the schedule arouse such passion and unrelenting battle followed by respect and admiration as the service academy contests. After nearly three hours of raging war on the field, each team respectfully stands at attention for each other’s school song. These warriors know that following the battles on the playing field, they will one day fight and serve together in the armed forces. Service academy week is a special time at the Air Force Academy. Prior to the game, the prisoners of war are exchanged. Each academy has several exchange cadets from their fellow academies. Prior to the service academy game, these cadets are exchanged by the wing or brigadier commanders of the academies so they can sit on their own side during the game. The “prisoner of war” exchange is usually highlighted by the cadets having a message taped to their backs. Service academy games are the ultimate experience of sportsmanship, competitiveness and respect. Falcon fans are well aware of this as nearly 700,000 people have watched the Falcons play Army and Navy in the last 15 years, averaging over 45,000 fans per game. Nine of AFA’s top 15 crowds have come against Army and Navy.

The Brian Bullard Award The Bullard Award is voted on by the team based on the criteria that typifies Brian Bullard - unselfishness, 110 percent effort, total team commitment and pride in his role on the team whether he’s a starter or not. A memorial is located in the Falcon Athletic Center so that every football player sees it every day. The memorial has Brian’s picture and the name and photo of each year’s winner. A 1982 graduate of Air Academy High School in Colorado Springs, Brian attended the Academy the following year. After playing on the junior varsity his freshman year, he made the varsity and lettered as a sophomore in 1983. During Thanksgiving vacation that year, Brian, a member of Cadet Squadron 27, and cadet Dianne Williams of Cameron, Mo., were returning from Kansas and were caught in a snow storm. The two died from carbon monoxide poisoning. Williams was a member of Cadet Squadron 33 and played on the women’s varsity golf team. The Brian Bullard award is presented annually at the Falcon football team banquet. Brian was the epitome of everything Air Force Football stands for. Brian’s life is used not only for motivation, but as the benchmark each Falcon football player should strive to attain. The criteria established for the award were taken directly from the life of Brian Bullard. The recipient of this prestigious award cares about the team first and himself second. He loves his team and his teammates and will do everything he can to make his brothers better. He is a source of encouragement for everyone and truly leads by example. He gives his all and truly enjoys every practice. He shows great pride in his role on the team and is a pleasure to coach. Though he played just two seasons with the football team, Brian left quite an impression.
Senior Jonathan Warzeka was the recipient of the Brian Bullard award at the 2011 Air Force Football Awards Banquet. Warzeka led the Falcons with 31 catches and was second on the team with 442 receiving yards and four touchdown receptions. Warzeka also rushed for 244 yards on 28 carries and led the team with 23 kickoff returns for 489 yards. He became the school’s all-time leader in kickoff return yards during the season and finished his career with 59 returns for 1,495 yards. He ranks sixth in school history with a 25.3 career kickoff return average and is the only player in school history to post two 100-yard kickoff return touchdowns.

Less than 45 minutes from the Academy and with over 300 days of sunshine per year, The Mile High City of Denver has it all. Truly a sports capitol, Denver has nine professional sports teams, including the Denver Broncos (NFL), Denver Nuggets (NBA), Colorado Avalanche (NHL), Colorado Rockies (MLB), Colorado Rapids (Major League Soccer), Denver Dynamite (Indoor Soccer League), Denver Outlaws (Major League Lacrosse) and the Colorado Mammoth (National Lacrosse League). Recent success among the teams has driven the excitement for these teams a mountain high. The Broncos won the Super Bowl in 1998 and 1999. The Avalanche won the Stanley Cup in 1996 and 2001. The Rockies played in the World Series in 2007. Located just east of the Rocky Mountains and the Continental Divide, Denver has a mild and dry climate with more days of sunshine per year than San Diego and Miami. Golf courses are open year round as the average winter temperature is 45 degrees, warmer than Boston, New York City and St. Louis. The city sits at 5,280 feet above sea level. In fact, there is a step on
the State Capitol Building that is exactly one mile above sea level. Even at a mile above sea level, the city is dwarfed by its backdrop. The foothills being just west of the city and the peaks of the mountain range reach heights of more than 14,000 feet. Despite the proximity to the mountains, the city receives just 8-15 inches of precipitation per year, about the same as Los Angeles. The United States Census Bureau estimates that, in 2006, the population of the City and County of Denver was 566,974, making it the 27th most populous U.S. city. The DenverAurora Metropolitan Statistical Area had an estimated 2006 population of 2,408,750 and ranked as the 21st most populous U.S. metropolitan statistical area. Denver has the largest city park system in the nation. There are 650 miles of off-street, bike paths, 90 golf courses and 200 parks. Within a 90-minute drive from downtown Denver, there are opportunities for some of the country’s best skiing, hiking, fishing, rafting and mountain biking.

Falcon Stadium A picturesque setting at the base of the Rampart Range of the Rocky Mountains and boasting some of the grandest pageantry in all of college football, Falcon Stadium is without a doubt one of the premier college football stadiums in America. Sitting at 6,621 feet above sea level, the thin air has been kind to the Falcons. Air Force has won 61 percent of its home games in the stadium with a 162-104-4 all-time home record. Falcon Stadium’s elevation is the second-highest of any Division I-A stadium in the nation. The stadium’s current capacity is 46,692. Falcon Stadium, built in a natural bowl in the foothills, was built in the fall of 1962 at a cost of $3.5 million. Falcon Stadium opened on Sept. 22, 1962, when a then-overflow crowd of 41,350 saw Air Force defeat Colorado State, 24-0. AFA held a formal dedication on Oct. 20, 1962, when Air Force hosted Oregon. The Ducks won the game, 35-20. The stadium was originally built solely for football, but several non-athletic events, such as the Academy’s annual graduation, are conducted there. Since 1962, the stadium has seen several significant upgrades. In 1991, the Academy installed nine skyboxes and remodeled the existing press box. The facility currently seats 450 people indoors, along with 88 in the skyboxes. In addition to its game-day uses, the press box is also used by the
athletic department as a banquet/meeting room. In 2002, the Academy added permanent lights. The cost of just under $500,000 was at no expense to tax payers. The Air Force Academy Athletic Association picked up the tab. That same season, a school record crowd of 56,409 packed the stadium against for a game against Notre Dame. In 2004, a new scoreboard was installed. The board features a video screen and message board and replaced the old board at the south end of the field. Throughout the 1990’s and early 2000’s, the stadium’s capacity was 52,480 but in 2005, the stadium’s capacity was reduced to 46,692 (the current capacity). The removal of the bleachers on the east side greatly increased the fan experience with additional food and beverage vendors and more room to move around the stadium. Prior to the 2006 season, FieldTurf was installed at a cost of $750,000. The new turf covers 84,480 square feet with an additional 26,520 square feet of native grass surrounding it. The scenic backdrop, the game-day experience and the recent upgrades have ensured that Falcon Stadium is among the best venues in all of college football. The proof is in the ranking as CBS Sports (March 2011) ranked Falcon Stadium the 22nd best in college football, higher than any other Mountain West institution.

Falcon Stadium Air Force football has been among the Mountain West Conference leaders in attendance since its inception. The Falcons have averaged more than the conference average every year. Air Force’s average attendance last season of 35,303 was the second best in the Mountain West (San Diego State led the league with (39,865).

Since moving into Falcon Stadium, the Falcons have been a major force. Air Force has a 166105-4 record in Falcon Stadium. Air Force was a perfect 6-0 in 2007, marking just the third undefeated home season in school history.

Unprecedented Support Air Force’s attendance average is nearly nine times it’s student body size (4,000), making Falcon Stadium the most-well attended in all of Division I football.
Air Force Football 2012 -- page 27
The Falcon Athletic Center (FAC), completed in July 2003, has proven to be one of the nation’s best facilities. The facility was part of a military construction project that not only built the new building, but altered the existing Cadet Field House. The $30.3 million project included 161,000 total square feet, including the Falcon Athletic Center’s 109,000 square feet and a 51,000 square foot renovation of the Cadet Field House, completed in March 2004. Student-athletes’ schedules at the Academy are institutionally driven, unlike that of most civilian schools where student-athletes have much more free time. Student-athletes at the Academy are allotted from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m. daily for athletic pursuits. That time must be used for practice, transit to and from the dormitory area and the Cadet Gymnasium or
Cadet Field House, medical taping and treatment and conditioning in the weight room. In addition, competition at the NCAA Division I level has become a year-round proposition for all athletes, whether they are cadets or their counterparts at civilian institutions. Understanding that the Academy enrollment of 4,000 consists of roughly 25 percent student-athletes (1,000), the existing athletic facilities were taxed. The same was true for the existing medical treatment and weight room facilities. In addition to the student-athletes, the Academy also uses these facilities for its massive intramural sports program. The 3,000 cadets who are not intercollegiate athletes participate in intramural activities adding about 1,200 to 1,500 cadets in the athletic facilities

at the same time. The 23,000 square foot, two-story weight training facility is on the first level, along with areas for equipment storage. The new sports medicine facility, equipment room, football coaches offices and football locker room are on the second level of the building. The reception area for the football offices displays the history of Falcon football. The third floor is home to the Hall of Excellence which features the history of the Academy’s intercollegiate and intramural programs, along with the inductees into the Athletic Hall of Fame. This area gives guests and visitors the opportunity to visit the history of Academy athletics along with a theatre and interactive displays. The fourth level is for athletic administration.
The dream became a reality on Oct. 1, 2010, as the USAFA Endowment, on behalf of the United States Air Force Academy and the Association of Graduates, hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the new Holaday Athletic Center. The project was made possible by a generous lead gift of $5 million from Bart and Lynn Holaday, Class of 1965--the largest gift from a graduate to the Academy in the institution’s history. The Holaday Athletic Center, an indoor athletic training facility, is also unique in that it is the largest privately funded capital project in Academy history. Construction began in October 2010 and was completed in July 2011.
The 92,000 square-foot center houses a regulation-sized field that can accommodate football, lacrosse and soccer, in addition to many other athletic activities. Cadet athletic development and performance will be enhanced through reduced weather delays, increased practice time and improved replication of game conditions that the facility provides. “Today is one of the most exciting days in the history of Air Force athletics,” said Air Force Director of Athletics Dr. Hans Mueh on the day of ground-breaking. “Air Force athletics is not just our 27 intercollegiate sports, but also encompasses intramurals, physical education classes and cadet physical fitness training. Air

Force athletics touches every cadet here at the Academy and because of this generous gift from Bart and Lynn Holaday and others who have given, we will continue to have the very best facilities to provide total team and player development, benefiting all cadets and enhancing the Academy’s overall success in intercollegiate and intramural athletics.” Three days after the ground-breaking ceremony, construction began to level the ground north of the Cadet Field House and continued steadily throughout the winter. A ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Holaday Athletic Center was scheduled for July 22, 2011. The new facility will be ready for intercollegiate teams to practice indoors this fall.
The Air Force Academy The United States Air Force Academy offers a four-year program of instruction and experience designed to educate, train and inspire men and women to become officers of character, motivated to lead the United States Air Force in service to our nation. Each cadet graduates with a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Air Force. Course of Study Cadets are exposed to a balanced curriculum that provides the knowledge, skills and responsibilities essential to a career Air Force officer. The entire USAFA experience is integrated and mapped to achieve a set of desired outcomes in every graduate. The core academic curriculum includes courses in basic sciences, engineering, social sciences and humanities. Cadets take additional elective courses to complete requirements for one of 32 major areas of study. About 50 percent of the cadets complete majors in science and engineering; the remainder graduate in the social sciences and humanities. Some of the most popular majors include management, aeronautical engineering, foreign area studies, history, behavioral science, civil engineering, astronautical engineering, electrical engineering and engineering mechanics. Faculty Composition The majority of the Academy’s faculty members, more than 500 total, are Air Force officers. They are selected primarily from career-officer volunteers who have established outstanding records of performance and dedication. Each has at least a master’s degree and more than 55 percent have doctorates or other terminal degrees in their field of study. About 30 percent of the faculty are civilians who bring great depth of disciplinary and educational expertise and provide academic stability and continuity. Faculty members are intensely focused on cadet learning as an integral part of their officer development. The Air Force Academy has been ranked No. 1 in the nation for the most accessible and involved faculty. To provide greater contributions by a diverse faculty, the Academy has several distinguished visiting professors and endowed professors who serve one or more years. Officers from other services, as well as officers from allied countries are also members of the faculty. Distinguished civilian and military lecturers also share their expertise with the cadets during the academic year. Athletic Program The Academy’s athletic program is designed to improve physical fitness, teach athletic skills and develop leadership qualities. To achieve its goals, the Academy offers some of the most extensive
physical education, intramural sports and intercollegiate athletic programs in the nation. Cadets take at least three different physical education courses each year.
History of The Academy
Military Education and Training An air, space and cyberspace-oriented military education, training and leadership program begins with basic cadet training and continues throughout the four years. Seniors are responsible for the organizational leadership of the cadet wing, while juniors and sophomores seek to develop team and interpersonal leadership and instructional skills. Cadets are projected into as many active leadership roles as possible to prepare them to be effective Air Force officers. Fundamental concepts of military organization -- drill, ethics, honor, Air Force heritage and physical training -- are emphasized the first summer during basic cadet training. Freshmen then study the military role in United States society as well as the mission and organization of the Air Force. Sophomores receive instruction in communication skills and juniors study the combat and operational aspects of the Air Force. The Academy offers courses in flying, navigation, soaring and parachuting, building from basic skills to instructor duties. Some cadets may fly light aircraft with the Cadet Flying Team. Summer training for cadets is divided into three, three-week training periods. There are a variety of programs available and each cadet is required to complete two training periods each summer with leave during the other period. All new cadets take six weeks of basic cadet training in their first summer. Combat survival training is a required threeweek program during cadets’ second summer. For other second-summer training periods, cadets have options such as working with Airmen in an operational unit at an Air Force installation, airborne parachute training, soaring or basic free-fall parachute training. During their last two summers, all cadets are offered leadership training as supervisors or instructors in the summer programs listed above. Extracurricular activities also are an integral part of the education program. The cadet ski club, drum and bugle corps, cadet chorale and forensics are a few of the programs available.
In 1948, a board of leading civilian and military educators was appointed to plan the curriculum for an academy that would meet the needs of the newly established Air Force. The board determined that Air Force requirements could not be met by expanding the other service academies and recommended an Air Force Academy be established without delay.
Nominations Nominations to the Academy may be obtained through a congressional sponsor or by meeting eligibility criteria in other categories of competition established by law.

In 1949, then Secretary of the Air Force W. Stuart Symington appointed a commission to assist in selecting a site and on April 1, 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower authorized creation of the United States Air Force Academy. After considering 580 sites in 45 states, the commission narrowed the choice to three locations. The summer of 1954, Secretary of the Air Force Harold Talbott selected a site near Colorado Springs, Colo. Colorado contributed $1 million toward purchase of the property. In July 1955, the first Academy class entered interim facilities at Lowry Air Force Base, Denver, while construction began. It was sufficiently completed for occupancy by the cadet wing in late August 1958. Initial construction cost was $142 million. Women entered the Academy on June 28, 1976, as members of the class of 1980.
Senior Leadership Lt. Gen. Michael C. Gould is Superintendent, U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs, Colo. He directs a four-year academic, military training, athletic and character development program leading to a bachelor’s degree and commission as an Air Force officer. The general is a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy’s Class of 1976. His career encompasses a wide range of assignments, ranging from head football coach of the Air Force Academy Preparatory School, to serving as Air Force aide to the President of the United States. He has held numerous command positions at the group, wing and numbered air force level, and was commander of Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center during 9/11. Prior to his return to the Academy, he was Director of Operations and Plans, U.S. Transportation Command, Scott Air Force Base, Ill. General Gould is a command pilot with more than 3,000 flying hours in the T-38, T-41, KC-10, C-5, C-17, C-21, C-141 and KC-135R. The general’s military awards and decorations include the Distinguished Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters, Defense Superior Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters, Legion of Merit with oak leaf cluster, Meritorious Service Medal with oak leaf cluster, Air Force Commendation Medal, Air Force Achievement Medal and the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal.

Director of Athletics Dr. Hans J. Mueh
Dr. Hans J. Mueh is in his ninth year as the director of athletics at the Air Force Academy. A retired Air Force brigadier general, Mueh was vice dean of faculty for two years prior to his retirement from active duty in the summer of 2004. Mueh was heavily involved in Academy athletics before becoming director of athletics. He was the Academy’s faculty athletics representative from 1996-2004 and was a long-time member of the board of directors for the Air Force Academy Athletics Association. Since becoming the director of athletics, Mueh has led the Academy to some remarkable feats. In 2007, the Academy was one of only three schools (Michigan State and Boston College) to reach post-season play in football (2007), men’s basketball and ice hockey (2006-07). It marked the first time a service academy has ever had a team compete in the post-season in all three sports. In addition, under Mueh’s watch the men’s basketball team has played in another NCAA tournament and the National Invitational Tournament’s Final Four. The ice hockey team has won the conference championship and advanced to the NCAA tournament five of the last six years. Mueh was on the selection committee that hired current head coach Frank Serratore and led the Academy’s move into the Athletic Hockey Association. The football program, the Academy’s flagship sport, has gone through a major overhaul under Mueh. He led the transition from the retirement of the legendary Fisher DeBerry after 23 years at the helm to hiring current head coach Troy Calhoun, a 1989 Academy graduate. Calhoun’s impact was immediate, leading the Falcons to a 9-4
overall mark and a second-place finish in the Mountain West Conference in 2007. The Falcons qualified for their first bowl game in five years, playing in the Armed Forces Bowl in 2007. The program has gone to a school-record five consecutive bowl games and averaged over 9,000 bowl tickets sold during that time. Mueh has been just as successful behind the scenes with the administration of the department. Mueh restructured the department with an internal/external model that has streamlined resources and made the department more effective from top to bottom. In addition, he has the department on course to become a federally chartered non-profit organization which will lead to more fundraising opportunities. Mueh was instrumental in the USAFA Endowment and the announcement of the Holaday Athletic Center, an indoor training facility. The $15 million facility was completed in July 2011. Mueh has also been active within the conference and the NCAA. He was recently selected to be part of the NCAA Division I Amateurism Cabinet and has been active on the NCAA’s academics/eligibility compliance cabinet, the men’s golf committee and the region 7 postgraduate scholarship committee. Mueh has been equally active within the conference on various leadership committees. He is currently on the awards and recognition committee and has previously served on the joint council executive committee, and committees on championships, television and sportsmanship. Before assuming his duties as vice dean at the Academy, Mueh was permanent professor and head of the department of chemistry at the Academy, a position he held since October 1987 where he oversaw the annual design and instruction of 25 undergraduate courses for 1,500 cadets annually. Mueh was born Jan. 8, 1944, in Celle, Germany, and emigrated to the United States in 1951. He entered the Air Force in 1962 as a member of the Academy’s eighth graduating class, and graduated with a bachelor of science degree in chemistry in 1966. While at the Academy, Mueh was a two-year letterwinner in soccer as a goalie. He still holds the Academy record for saves in a game with 30, accomplishing it twice in 1965 against North Carolina and Benedictine. In his junior and senior years, Mueh helped the Falcons to the Rocky Mountain
Air Force Football 2012 -- page 32
Intercollegiate Soccer League championship and quarterfinal berths in the NCAA tournament. He was a first-team all-league selection in 1965. Following graduation, Mueh completed two assignments in intelligence before attending the University of Wisconsin where he earned his master’s degree in chemistry in 1970. He later earned a doctorate degree in chemistry from Wisconsin in 1976 as a distinguished graduate. He has also completed Squadron Officer School, Air Command and Staff College and Air War College. Between earning the two degrees, Mueh returned to the Academy as an instructor in the department of chemistry from 1970-72. He also served as assistant soccer coach and played semi-pro soccer with the Aurora Internationals in Denver during those two years, leading the Internationals to the Colorado state title in 1971. He volunteered for duty in Vietnam and served as an intelligence officer in Saigon, Republic of Vietnam and at Nakhon Phanom RTAB, Thailand, in 1972 and 1973. After earning his doctorate degree, Mueh returned to the Academy in 1976 as an associate professor of chemistry. He remained at the Academy except for a stint in 1985-86 as the special assistant for technical matters at the Defense Intelligence Agency at the Pentagon. In 1986, he assumed the position of acting head, department of chemistry, before being selected for his position of permanent professor and head of the department of chemistry in 1987. As faculty athletics representative, he was active in both the Western Athletic Conference and Mountain West Conference, and was the Academy’s representative on the transition team to form the new MWC, the only faculty athletics representative on the team. He competes in golf, racquetball, handball and tennis, and has promoted Air Force Academy intercollegiate sports throughout his tenure, beginning with work as chairman of the hockey eligibility committee, officer representative to the men’s golf team and five years as the officer representative to the football team. Mueh is married to the former Sally Flax of Cincinnati, Ohio. They have three children: Kristine, Kurt and Deborah.
Falcon Athletics Few schools in the country have an athletic program as extensive as the Air Force Academy’s. The goals of the athletic program are to enhance the physical conditioning of all cadets, to develop the physical skills necessary for officership, to teach leadership in a competitive environment and to build character. There are three subdivisions of the athletic program: intercollegiate athletics, intramurals and physical education. The intercollegiate program has 17 men’s and 10 women’s NCAA-sanctioned teams, facing some of the top competition in the nation. Men’s teams are football, baseball, basketball, ice hockey, cross-country, fencing, golf, gymnastics, indoor and outdoor track, lacrosse, rifle, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, water polo and wrestling. The Academy fields women’s teams in basketball, cross-country, fencing, gymnastics, rifle, indoor and outdoor track, swimming and diving, soccer, tennis and volleyball. In addition, the Academy sponsors two non-NCAA programs; boxing and cheerleading. The majority of the Academy’s men’s and women’s programs compete at the NCAA Division I level in the Mountain West Conference. The Falcons compete in this conference against teams from Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, Hawai’i (football only), Nevada, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV and Wyoming. All sports also compete against non-conference opponents, including many nationallyranked teams. The football team competes annually for the Commanderin-Chief’s Trophy, which is emblematic of service academy football supremacy. The Falcons have won the trophy 18 times, which is more than any other academy. The winner of the annual rivalry visits the White House to have the trophy presented by the President of the United States. The USAFA Cadet Field House is one of the most impressive buildings in the country. It’s a modern, versatile structure with seemingly endless uses. The $5.6 million building is five stories high and 396 feet by 426 feet, the size of three football fields laid side by side. The structure is divided into three areas--basketball arena, ice hockey arena and multipurpose area. The three sections have a combined seating capacity of more than 9,000. Clune Arena seats 5,858. The Cadet Ice Rink has a seating capacity of 2,470, while the multipurpose area seats 1,000 fans for track and field competitions. The department’s newest facility, the Holaday Athletic Center, was completed in July 2011.

The Falcon Sports audiences across the country have been intrigued and delighted by the aerobatics of the falcon, the flying mascot of the U.S. Air Force Academy -- one of only two schools with performing mascots in the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The falcon can attain velocities exceeding 200 miles per hour in swoops or dives, turn sharply and streak only inches above the ground, making it the fastest and one of the most maneuverable of all birds. Trained and handled by cadet falconers, the birds soar and dive, sometimes zooming low over the heads of spectators. While their public flying performances are primarily limited to outdoor venues -- most often at football games and cadet wing parades -- the falcons appear at many other athletic contests in which cadet teams play. Members of the Class of 1959, the first to enter the Academy, chose the falcon as the mascot of the cadet wing Sept. 25, 1955, feeling that it best characterized the combat role of the U.S. Air Force. They did not specify any particular species; thus, any falcon can serve as mascot. Some of the characteristics which led to its selection were speed, powerful and graceful flight, courage, keen eyesight, alertness, regal carriage and noble tradition. The falcon exemplified the qualities sought in Air Force Academy cadets: courage, intelligence, love of the wild sky, ferocity in attack, but gentle in repose, and discipline. Experts once said falcons could not be trained to perform before huge crowds, that the birds would panic and flee. Since 1956, however, cadets have flown the birds at sporting events before thousands of cheering
spectators. Six weeks or more and an average of 300 man-hours per bird are required to properly train a young falcon via operant conditioning. When a bird is in top condition, it is able to fly for more than an hour and make repeated stoops at the baited lure swung by the cadet falconer. Although they can be trained to perform, falcons are never totally domesticated and remain wild creatures with strong, individual and independent spirits. On Oct. 5, 1955, a splendid peregrine was the first falcon presented to the cadet wing. It was named “Mach 1,” referring to the speed of sound. Today, 12 to 15 falcons are kept in the mews (enclosures for trained hawks) north of the cadet area. Current breeds of falcons at the Academy include several breeds of falcons which are native to North America, including prairie falcons, peregrine falcons, and the largest type of falcon, the gyrfalcon. The Academy recently added several gyr-saker hybrids and a gyr-peregrine hybrid to its ranks. Sakers are a strong and agile mid-to-large size breed of falcon, native to Eastern Europe and Asia. Sakers have been cross-bred with the larger gyrfalcons in recent years to produce a highly intelligent, agile and powerful breed of performing falcon, and have flown at the Academy since 2003. In addition to flying performances, the falcons and cadet falconers visit dozens of schools, scouting groups, youth groups, airshows and other public events around the country, educating youth and adults alike on falconry, raptors, the Air Force and the Air Force Academy. On June 8, 1996, the Association of Graduates purchased a female white-phase gyrfalcon from Mr. Dan Konkle in Sheridan, Wyo., and donated her to the Academy. The cadet wing named this new mascot Aurora - from Roman mythology, the goddess of the dawn. She is now the official mascot for the United States Air Force Academy and has become the center of attention for the Academy’s Falcon Mascot Program. At a mere 40 days old, this majestic creature weighed four pounds. Glacier, our previous white-phase gyrfalcon Mascot from 1980-95, only weighed two pounds. Although any falcon can serve as an Academy mascot, the white-phase gyrfalcon is native to Alaska, Canada, Greenland and the U.S.-Canadian border, and has always been the official mascot of the Air Force Academy. Gyrfalcons constitute

WHY THE FALCON? Speed Can attain velocities exceeding 200 miles per hour in stoops or dives on their prey. Power Powerful and graceful flight, with strong, deep wing beats; they maneuver with ease, grace and evident enjoyment. Courage Fearless and aggressive, falcons fiercely defend their nest and young against intruders. They have been known to unhesitatingly attack and kill prey more than twice their size. Keen eyesight About eight times sharper than man. Alertness, regal carriage and noble tradition. only about five percent of the total number of falcons found in the United States. Of that five percent, only about 3-4 percent are true white-phase gyrfalcons. Falconry is one of the extracurricular activities offered to cadets. There are usually 12 falconers, with four chosen from each new class at the end of the year to replace graduating seniors. The new falconers begin training in January under the leadership of experienced upperclassmen and the officer-in-charge. Without proper instruction, novices can physically harm the birds or adversely affect their training. Falconers’ duties include daily checks of each bird’s health and condition, training sessions during which the birds are fed a measured ration of meat, frequent cleaning of the mews and routine maintenance of equipment. During performances, the birds fly to a lure, a rectangular-shaped leather pouch. The falconer whirls the lure in a circle on a 30-foot cord; the bird quickly learns to strike it in mid-air, carry it to the ground and dine on the food. As the bird stoops toward the lure in free flight, the lure is jerked aside, causing the falcon to fly up, circle and make another pass. This procedure is repeated several times before the bird is allowed to strike the lure in mid-air. The falcon performs this task knowing that as soon as it catches the lure, it earns its meal for the day. A small battery-powered transmitter and a bell are attached to each leg so that, should the bird not come to the lure as it had been trained, the cadet falconers will be able to follow and safely recover the falcon.
Air Force Song History of the Air Force Song In 1938, Liberty magazine sponsored a contest for a spirited, enduring musical composition to become the official Army Air Corps song. Of 757 scores submitted, Robert Crawford’s was selected by a committee of Air Force wives. The song was officially introduced at the Cleveland Air Races on September 2, 1939. Fittingly, Crawford sang it in its first public performance. The first page of the score, which Crawford submitted to the selection committee in July 1939, was carried to the surface of the moon on July 30, 1971, aboard the Apollo 15 “Falcon” lunar module by Colonel David R. Scott and Lieutenant Colonel James B. Irwin. Interestingly, at the moment the “Falcon” blasted off the surface of the moon with Scott and Irwin on board, a rendition of the “Air Force Song” was broadcast to the world by Major Alfred M. Worden, who had a tape recorder aboard the “Endeavor” command module which was in orbit around the moon. Scott, Irwin and Worden comprised the first and only “All-Air Force” Apollo crew and arranged to take the page of sheet music with them as a tribute to Crawford and the United States Air Force.
by Robert Crawford courtesy USAF Heritage of America Band Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Climbing high into the sun; Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At ‘em boys, Give ‘er the gun! (Give ‘er the gun now!) Down we dive, spouting our flame from under, Off with one helluva roar! We live in fame or go down in flame. Hey! Nothing’ll stop the U.S. Air Force! Additional verses:
Bridge Section: Toast to the Host “A Toast to the Host” is part of the original Air Force Song. Many times this is sung as a separate piece. This is the verse which commemorates those who have fallen in the name of our service and our great country. This is the reason for the difference in melody and the reverent, reflective mood. After every football game, the Drum and Bugle Corps plays “A Toast to the Host” as the football team gathers together on the field, joins hands and stands at attention.
Minds of men fashioned a crate of thunder, Sent it high into the blue; Hands of men blasted the world asunder; How they lived God only knew! (God only knew then!) Souls of men dreaming of skies to conquer Gave us wings, ever to soar! With scouts before And bombers galore. Hey! Nothing’ll stop the U.S. Air Force! Bridge: “A Toast to the Host” Here’s a toast to the host Of those who love the vastness of the sky, To a friend we send a message of his brother men who fly. We drink to those who gave their all of old, Then down we roar to score the rainbow’s pot of gold. A toast to the host of men we boast, the U.S. Air Force! Off we go into the wild sky yonder, Keep the wings level and true; If you’d live to be a grey-haired wonder Keep the nose out of the blue! (Out of the blue, boy!)

Falcon Football Pageantry Nothing is more indicative of the pageantry of Air Force football than the Wings of Blue. The U.S. Air Force Academy parachute team, the Wings of Blue, has been one of the outstanding parachute units in the country for more than two decades. Since 1967, cadets have dominated national intercollegiate parachuting championships, typically winning decisively over 40 other schools which field about 125 of the nation’s top college competitors. Additionally, they perform about 50 demonstrations each year for millions of spectators. That doesn’t include jumping into Falcon Stadium before the start of every football game, weather permitting. The Wings of Blue, because of their diverse mission, are divided into a demonstration team and a competition team. Advising and supervising the team is a cadre of active duty and reserve Air Force commissioned and non-commissioned officers. The team jumps from a variety of aircraft. However, the team primarily uses its own DeHavilland UV-18B Twin Otters. Each cadet member must be a qualified jump-master and instructor in the Air Force Academy parachuting program. They must also maintain high academic and military standards to remain with the team. Members of the team average
600 jumps by the time they graduate. The primary mission of the parachute team is not competing or performing, it’s to train other cadets in free-fall parachuting. Each year, over 1,000 cadets complete five free-fall jumps in the basic free fall parachuting course and earn the coveted parachutist badge and rating. The Academy is the only school in the Air Force authorized to grant these awards and is the only school in the U.S. authorized to allow students to perform unassisted free-fall delays on their first jump, without any prior static
The complete experience in sight and sound is presented at every home Falcon football game by the “Flight of Sound,” the U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Drum and Bugle Corps. Since 1948, the Air Force Drum and Bugle Corps has entertained audiences across the nation and abroad with their thrilling performances. The Corps, originally assigned to Bolling Air Force Base, Washington, D.C., was transferred to the Air Force Academy in 1963 and turned over to the Cadet Wing in 1972. Since then, the corps has won 16 of the 24 Interservice Academy Drum and Bugle Corps competitions and are the four-time defending champions. The competition is held annually during the Air Force vs. Navy football weekend. Recognized as one of America’s premier musical and marching units, the Corps exemplifies the precision and musical blend of a welldirected band or orchestra and
line training. The basic free-fall program is the premier character development program at the Academy and is available to all cadets. It is designed to develop courage, confidence and discipline in each student and provide leadership experiences for the cadet instructors who teach the course. It is a rigorous training schedule with heavy emphasis on safety. Before cadets make their first jump, they are drilled repeatedly in ground school on proper parachuting procedures. The repetition is intended to have the jumper respond automatically and correctly should something unexpected occur during the jump. Cadets who successfully complete the basic free fall course are then eligible to take the advanced training necessary to tryout for the Wings of Blue. Those who want advanced training must compete for admission. Selection is based upon an individual’s maturity, abilities, academic and military standing. From its uncertain beginnings, when it was reserved for stuntmen, rugged paratroopers and desperate pilots, parachuting has evolved into an exacting science and demanding sport -- a sport dominated at the college level by the Air Force Academy.
the showmanship of a Broadway production. Performing on the average of 150 times a year, they have become known as the Academy’s ambassadors of precision drill and musical pageantry. The Corps’ primary mission is to support the Cadet Wing activities, including military formations and Academy athletic contests both home and away. An extension of the mission continues in the community with concerts, field exhibitions, band festivals and various military ceremonies. The “D & B” Corps is comprised of 135 cadets and has represented the Air Force Academy at Presidential Inaugural Parades, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parades, The Tournament of Roses Parade, Mardi Gras Parades, The Festival of State in St. Petersburg, Fla., Walt Disney World’s International Music Festival and The Long’s Peak Scottish/Irish Festival.

Head Coach Troy Calhoun The purpose of the United States Air Force Academy is to develop young people of strong character who graduate and serve as outstanding leaders on active duty and beyond. It’s a purpose Troy Calhoun thoroughly respects and realizes is necessary for our country. While embracing the mission of the Academy, Calhoun has also found a way to accomplish what was once considered unthinkable: building a service academy program that plays very competitive football in one of college football’s best conferences. Air Force student-athletes must complete the nation’s most demanding academic curriculum while further embedding the heart and character that are crucial for serving America. Cadets at the Academy must work through courses that require finishing over 140 semester hours. Strong character traits, to include respect, teamwork, courage, spirit, discipline, honesty and toughness, are the bedrock of the leadership qualities Air Force football players utilize while serving as officers in the United States Air Force. Calhoun and his staff have parlayed the varied demands of their players into a cohesive team that has fared quite well both on and off the field in his five seasons as head coach. Calhoun’s players are extraordinarily successful finishing their academic and leadership responsibilities. The Air Force football team’s NCAA APR (Academic Progress Report) is annually amongst the finest of the 120 schools that play at the FBS level of college football. From May 2008 through the present, Air Force is the only service academy and the only Mountain West Conference program to finish above the nation’s 90th percentile each of the last five years.

The Mountain West From its inception in 1999, the Mountain West has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Progressive in its approach, the MW continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. Now in its 14th year, the MW has been assertive in its involvement with the NCAA governance structure and has taken a leadership role in the overall administration of intercollegiate athletics. The Mountain West has marked several achievements over its first 13 years of existence, most notably becoming the first to establish a sports television network dedicated solely to an intercollegiate athletic conference (The Mtn.). The Mountain West also was the first to experiment with the coaches’ challenge in the college football instant replay system, and was the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS conference to participate in four BCS bowl games, winning three. Additionally, the Mountain West was the first conference to have a member institution with No. 1 overall picks in both the NFL and NBA drafts in the same year (Utah’s Alex Smith and Andrew Bogut, respectively in 2005). With San Diego State’s Stephen Strasburg claiming the No. 1 pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the Mountain West is one of two conferences to have the No. 1 selection in each of the NFL, NBA and MLB drafts since the MW was founded in 1999. In 2011-12, the Mountain West was among the first conferences to implement a leaguewide state-of-the art basketball instant replay system. The Mountain West is noted for its geographic diversity. Some of the most beautiful terrain and landscapes in the nation can be found within Mountain West boundaries, including the majestic Rocky Mountain range, which borders four MW institutions (Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State and New Mexico). The high plains of Wyoming (el-
evation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert cities of Las Vegas and Reno, home to UNLV and Nevada, while Fresno State and San Diego State add a West coast influence with their locations in Central and Southern California. The inclusion of the Hawai‘i football program extends the Mountain West footprint to the beautiful islands in the Pacific Ocean.
HISTORY The Mountain West was conceived on May 26, 1998, when the presidents of eight institutions — Air Force, BYU, Colorado State, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV, Utah and Wyoming — decided to form a new NCAA Division I-A intercollegiate athletic conference. The split from a former 16-team conference re-established continuity and stability among the membership within the new league and signaled the continuation of
Air Force Football 2012 -- page 96
its tradition-rich, long-standing athletic rivalries. Three of the MW’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (New Mexico, Wyoming and Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well. UNLV and TCU entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MW in 1999. TCU re-joined the group with its first year of competition in the Mountain West in 2005-06. With conference realignment sweeping the nation in recent years, the MW has been proactive in addressing membership changes. Boise State University joined the Mountain West in 2011-12, followed by Fresno State and the University of Nevada on July 1, 2012. Also on July 1, 2012, the University of Hawai‘i became a football-only member of the Conference. On May 4, 2012, the Mountain West announced the additions of San Jose State University and Utah State University as full-time members effective July 1, 2013. When the Mountain West officially began operations on July 1, 1999, the new league had in place a seven-year contract with ESPN, giving the broadcaster exclusive national television rights to MW football and men’s basketball, and three-year agreements to send the league’s football champion to the Liberty Bowl and a second team to the Las Vegas Bowl. Commissioner Craig Thompson also arranged a third bowl tie-in each of the first three seasons (1999 Motor City, 2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans) before securing a four-year deal with the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco in 2002. Entering the 2012 season, the MW has four contracted bowl affiliations – the MAACO Bowl Las Vegas, San Diego Country Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl, Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl and Gildan New Mexico Bowl. An innovator in the postseason bowl structure, the MW engineered many “firsts,” as league teams have participated
The Mountain West in five inaugural bowl games (2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans, 2002 San Francisco (Emerald), 2005 Poinsettia, 2006 New Mexico), as well as placing the first non-automatic-qualifying BCS team into a BCS bowl game with Utah’s appearance in the 2005 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.
2011-12 IN REVIEW From the gridiron to the diamond, Mountain West teams enjoyed an outstanding year in 2011-12. The MW sent a record five football teams to bowl games for the fifth consecutive year and had two teams ranked in the final BCS Standings and USA Today/ESPN Coaches polls for the fourth straight season. League newcomer Boise State enjoyed a successful inaugural MW campaign, closing out the 2011 season ranked sixth in the Coaches’ poll and eighth in the Associated Press poll. For the second time in three years, the Mountain West was represented by four men’s basketball teams in the NCAA tournament, marking the 12th time in the last 13 years the Conference has sent multiple teams to the Big Dance. Regular season co-champion New Mexico captured the MW Tournament title to earn the league’s automatic bid, while MW regular-season co-champion San Diego State was joined by Colorado State and UNLV in receiving at-large invitations. The 2011-12 season marked the third straight year the Mountain West had at least two teams ranked in the final AP poll and one in the Coaches’ poll. Overall, the league had three different teams ranked in the national top 25 polls at some point during the season for the third straight year.
ACADEMIC CONSORTIUM From the outset, the MW’s member institutions have been committed to creating strong academic relationships, as well as athletic competition. To that end, the chief academic officers of each institution have explored academic exchange programs, library crossovers and shared research. In addition, the faculty athletics representatives routinely provide academic assistance and testtaking services for student-athletes visiting from fellow member institutions for competition.
OPPORTUNITY The Mountain West provides a first-class athletic and academic experience for more than 7,000 student-athletes each year. Over the past 13 years, 38 Mountain West student-athletes have earned NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships, and since the league’s inception in 1999, an additional 26 student-athletes have been named MW Scholar-Athlete of the Year and awarded league-sponsored postgraduate scholarships. Three student-athletes have earned distinction as Rhodes Scholars (Jessica Mellinger, Wyoming and Delavane Diaz and Brittany Morreale, Air Force). Conference student-athletes are also given a voice regarding pertinent issues within the MW and NCAA governance structure through representation on the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC). The Mountain West SAAC consists of 19 representatives; two student-athletes from each full member institution and one faculty athletics representative. The committee reviews and reacts to legislation and to other topics referred by the Conference constituent groups or committees related to the student-athlete experience.
ACHIEVEMENT The MW has produced 762 All-America selections among its 18 sponsored sports (men’s swimming was discontinued as a conference sport following the 2010-11 season) in the last 13 years, including a league-record 83 All-America honorees in 2010-11. A total of 125 MW student-athletes have also earned Academic AllAmerica accolades in that span. The Mountain West has sent at least 28 teams to NCAA postseason events in each of the past 13 years, capturing three team national championships in men’s cross country and producing 32 individual national champions in the sports of men’s golf, men’s cross country, and men’s and women’s indoor track & field and outdoor track & field. Mountain West members have participated in 51 bowl games under the league umbrella, including four appearances in BCS games. The MW has earned 61 postseason bids in men’s basketball, including 33 NCAA Tournament appearances and two NIT Final Four berths. MW women’s basketball has tallied 57 postseason slots, including 31 NCAA bids, five Sweet 16 appearances and one Elite Eight berth since 2000. Wyoming won the MW’s first WNIT championship in 2007 with a win over Wisconsin. In women’s volleyball, the MW has had 34 NCAA bids with eight Sweet 16 berths and one Elite Eight appearance. Women’s soccer has earned 26 NCAA bids since 1999, with BYU advancing to the Sweet 16 in 2000 and the Elite Eight in 2003. MW men’s golf has had at least four representatives in each of the last 13 NCAA Golf Regionals, while women’s golf has had at least three teams participate in NCAA Regionals 11 of the last 13 years.
SPORTSMANSHIP Named a Sports Ethics Fellow by the Institute for International Sport in 1998, Commissioner Thompson has been a driving force for sportsmanship within intercollegiate athletics. As part of its continuing growth and development, the Mountain West implemented an extensive Sportsmanship Initiative, endorsed by both the MW Joint Council and MW Board of Directors. The program is made up of several elements, which are both practical and philosophical in nature. While the MW has significant penalties in place to deal with violations, the Sportsmanship Initiative is primarily promotional and educational in nature. The goal is to develop an environment that fosters appropriate behavior from all Conference constituencies.

College Football Hall of Fame Strom
Four former Falcons have reached the pinnacle of their sport by getting inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Brock Strom, a 1959 Academy graduate, was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1985. Strom was a consensus All-American in 1958 and the captain of Air Force’s only undefeated team in school history. He played an instrumental role in the 1958 team that finished 9-0-2 and played in the Cotton Bowl.
Hennings
Chad Hennings, a 1988 Academy graduate, was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2006. A unanimous first-team All-America selection in 1987, Hennings received the Outland Trophy as the nation’s top interior lineman. A two-time first-team all-conference selection, he is a member of the Western Athletic Conference all-time team and was named WAC defensive player of the decade for the 1980s. He is a two-time first-team Academic All-American and is also a member of the Academic All-America Hall of Fame. Although he was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the 1988 NFL Draft, Hennings fulfilled a four-year military commitment, serving during the first Gulf War. In 1992, he rejoined the Cowboys and embarked on a nine-year NFL career that brought him three Super Bowl titles.
DeBerry
Long-time coach Fisher DeBerry was inducted in 2011, the first year he was eligible to be on the ballot. DeBerry served as head coach at Air Force for a brilliant 23-year career which concluded with his retirement on Dec. 15, 2006. He led 17 of his 23 teams to winning records and 12 captured a bowl bid, posting a 6-6 record. His career record of 169-109-1 is the best in school history in terms of games won and winning percentage. He coached the Falcons to three conference championships. The team won a share of the Western Athletic Conference championship in 1985, his second season, and again in 1995. In 1998, DeBerry guided the team to its first outright title with the WAC Mountain Division championship and a win over Brigham Young in the title game in Las Vegas. He was named WAC Coach of the Year for the third time in his career. The 1998 team’s 12-1 record completed the first back-to-back 10win seasons in school history following a 10-3 campaign the previous year. The 1998 squad finished the season ranked 10th nationally. His Falcons dominated the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy series with archrivals Army and Navy. Air Force won the trophy 14 times and shared it once in DeBerry’s tenure. He compiled a remarkable 35-11 record against the Black Knights and Midshipmen and is the winningest coach in service academy history. Scott Thomas, a 1986 Academy graduate, was inducted in 2012. Thomas earned consensus AllAmerican honors in 1985 as a senior safety while leading Air Force to a school-best 12-1 record, a No. 5 national ranking and victory over Texas in the Bluebonnet Bowl. He led the team in interceptions with six that season and became just the seventh player in NCAA history at the time to have a kickoff, punt and interception return for a touchdown in the same season. He ranks sixth in school history with 10 career interceptions. A special teams standout, Thomas ranks among Air Force’s all-time leaders in kickoff return yardage (ninth, 657 yards), kickoff return average (seventh, 25.2 average), punt returns (third, 52 returns), punt return yards (second, 613 yards) and punt return average (eighth, 11.7). He is the only player in school history in the top 10 in each category.
Thomas
Former Air Force coach, L.T. “Buck” Shaw was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1972. Shaw coached the Falcons in 1956 and 1957. Shaw is most known for his seven stellar seasons at Santa Clara, but also coached at North Carolina State, Nevada and California, as well as two stops in the NFL with San Francisco and Philadelphia.

Media Policies SIMPLE GUIDELINES: Regard for each cadet’s academics/rehabilitative treatment; make sure 3 and 4 degree cadets have ample chance during August to integrate into their new squadrons; and simple to follow cadets during their mission element periods of both intramural and intercollegiate athletics. PRACTICES: Air Force Football Practices- The United States Air Force Academy prefers open football practices. Open practices provide the opportunity to easily observe officer candidates while working through one of the Academy’s mission elements. Open practice guidelines include refraining from blogging or reporting of injuries or tactics. Video/Photography: Video and photography during practices can be done by those who are first cleared through the Air Force Academy Media Relations staff. August 3-23 video and photos can be taken during pre-practice and periods 1-5 each day. Starting August 27, video and photographers cleared through the Air Force Academy Media Relations staff may shoot film during pre-practice and periods 1-5 on Mondays and Tuesdays.
accessible on Mondays after practice. Then on Tuesdays, from 1:15-1:45, three other junior or senior cadets will be available. Up to three freshman or sophomore cadets who played in the most recent game will be available on Tuesdays from 1:15 to 1:45 p.m. Air Force players are available for live radio shows following each game. Coaches Availability- From August 3-24 Air Force coaches who’ve completed the staff fitness test within the last eight months (at least 6,500 feet above sea level run 1.5 miles in less than 14 minutes on a flat surface) will be available to discuss their position players after every practice. From August 27 through the completion of the regular season Coach Calhoun is accessible in a number of ways. They include: Sundays at 6 pm during the season via conference call, Tuesday mornings on the MW teleconference, Tuesday afternoon from 12:30-1:00 at the Air Force Academy media room, and Wednesday immediately after practice.
Player Availability: Open practices make it very easy for credentialed media to observe cadets during intercollegiate activities at the Air Force Academy. Player interviews prioritize each cadet’s academic, military, squadron, and leadership obligations in addition to any needed physical rehabilitation/ treatment. Because treatment time may be necessary, players must physically complete the previous practice or game. August 3-24 on non-school days, juniors and seniors will be accessible after practices. On school days three juniors and seniors will be available following Monday, Tuesday and Saturday practices. Beginning August 27, with the amount of graded academic material increasing after the 12th day of school (i.e. quizzes, papers, projects and tests), three junior or senior cadets will be
